Karvezide Cerebrovascular Accident Causes and Reviews

A stroke is a medical emergency. There are two types - ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemic stroke is the most common type. It is usually caused by a blood clot that blocks or plugs a blood vessel in the brain. This keeps blood from flowing to the brain. Within minutes, brain cells begin to die. Another cause is stenosis, or narrowing of the artery. This can happen because of atherosclerosis, a disease in which plaque builds up inside your arteries. Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) occur when the blood supply to the brain is interrupted briefly. Having a TIA can mean you are at risk for having a more serious stroke.

Symptoms of stroke are

Sudden numbness or weakness of the face, arm or leg (especially on one side of the body)

Sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding speech

Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes

Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination

Sudden severe headache with no known cause

It is important to treat strokes as quickly as possible. Blood thinners may be used to stop a stroke while it is happening by quickly dissolving the blood clot. Post-stroke rehabilitation can help people overcome disabilities caused by stroke damage.

Karvezide makes me go frequently to the bathroomI was on karvea before and was no sideaffects.

Although Karvezide controlled my hypertension, it leaves me with dry mouth and I find it difficult to sleep well during the nights, so my doctor switched me back to Karvea. After switching for 2 days, I already notice the increase in my blood pressure, but so far I am sleeping well now.

i have a very itchy rash evrtywhere only since the dr increased the strength

Sat, 21 May 2011

I have developed an itchy red rash on my face over the last two years for which I have not been able to find a cause. I now think it may be from taking calcium and vitamin D combination tablets for Osteoporosis together with my Karvazide medication.

ive been taken kavezide 150/12.5 for 3month and i notice that ive been constipated.

Sun, 21 Aug 2011

Extreme dizziness, fatigue, and weakness of muscles - Karvezide 300/25 is perhaps too strong for me as I have no problems as yet on the lesser dose 300/12.5.

Sat, 03 Dec 2011

I had taken Karvea 300 for three years before it became ineffective and my blood pressure started to rise.My general practitioner prescribed Karvezide 300/12.5 and after a short while I recorded normal blood pressure.I always experienced a dry mouth and at times did feel quite tired with mood swings evident.However,after two years on this medication I started to experience pain in the lower back area which was dismissed after x-rays revealed sacrilisation of L5.I endured this pain for another year during which I also started experiencing pain in the ankles and other joints - to the point where I had difficulty walking.I knew something was wrong as I was always in good health and am in my late 50s.A cardiac specialist took me off this medication and in the first week I immediately noticed an improvement in the pain being reduced.I am looking forward to it improving further and hope I have not caused any long term problems.My reason to post this is to simply warn people not to delay in getting an alternative medication if you feel you ar experiencing something unusual.
